I'm a medical receptionist, and we have plenty of hearing-impaired patients. Since I don't know ASL, we write notes back and forth, provide interpreters, make phone calls for them - in short, provide the best customer service we can as we do for all of our patients in any way we can.
The hairdresser can go through a style book or magazine with him in order to find a style like the one he wants, they can write notes back and forth, use simple signs like indicating how short they want it cut, and so forth. It's not so hard, and hearing-impaired folks are able to communicate in a lot of different ways, including speech.

Get out a pen and paper.
Be sure to treat him or her with the same dignity and respect you would anyone else.

If you do not know sign language, you could provide a paper and pen.
